Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 83:
- If a whole number divides 83 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 83 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 83 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 83
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 83 (√83 ) are possible divisor factors of 83
- √83 = 9.1104
- Possible Divisor Factors of 83: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 83 by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 9
- Possible Divisor Factors of 83 (filtered): 1, 7
- Divide 83 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 83: 1, 83
- Factor Pairs of 83: (1*83)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
